Chang Gu, who escaped, stayed at the door for a while and found that no one came out to chase him. He became even angrier. This was because no one took him seriously at all.
"I've said it before, your method won't work at all. Even if 001's strength is equal to mine, it doesn't mean I can defeat it. I gave you the ability, but you can't help me at all. You really disappoint me."
A black mist floated out of Chang Gu's body. Obviously, this was the traitor that 001 mentioned.
"That Qin Lou is so abominable. He knocked off the head of the enhanced zombie body that I had finally found. If it didn't have some energy left, it would have taken me a lot of effort to get back." The black fog made a sinister voice beside him.
"Let's go back and discuss it. I just happen to have a new plan here. It's a pity that those people locked up in there are my sources of energy, and they are wasted like this." Chang Gu didn't dare to stay any longer. Although his teleportation allowed him to escape quickly, he would be helpless if the energy was used up.
Chang Gu escaped and came to a place under the cover of black fog. This was his base camp.
Shi Jiu in the small town looked at the location on the map. Chang Gu dared to speak so arrogantly, so his lair should be nearby. However, 001 said that the person on the other side who knew about it was equally powerful, so he must have the ability to hide himself.
"Host, don't worry. Headquarters has already granted me upgraded permissions. The mission is nearing its end, and the higher-ups don't want us to fail. Just wait and see how I find the traitor!"
With the support of the headquarters, 001 changed his previous decadence and frantically searched for the place in the background.
"There are still quite a few people on their way here. Is there any danger?"
Shi Jiu thought that if he was nearby, he would definitely attack like the others. Suddenly, she remembered Yan Qing. This guy had been caught in the Anhe base and had been staying in a small dark room. It was discovered that there was something in his body before, so she didn't ask him.
"001, do you have any way to suppress the things in the bodies of those people in the small dark room? Don't let it be like last time, where they died without saying a word." Shi Jiu wanted to find that guy to find out if there was anything she didn't know.
"No problem, I am no longer the same person I was before!" 001 said excitedly, and the background data started immediately.
Shi Jiu walked towards the small dark room again and saw Qin Lou standing in front of it, looking at the tablet.
"Qin Lou, what are you looking at?" After Shi Jiu approached, he found that a map was displayed on his tablet, with red dots flashing and disappearing from time to time.
"This is the tracker I installed on him. It's a little trick, the result of my supernatural power." Qin Lou returned to his previous somewhat indifferent look, making Shi Jiu feel as if he had returned to the beginning.
"Oh, okay. I'll go in and ask someone about that guy. Do you want to come with me?" Shi Jiu wrapped his fingers around the small rope on his clothes and asked pretending to be indifferent.
"I'll be fine outside. Boss, you go in and be careful." Qin Lou, who would always accompany her in the past, did not choose to go in this time. Hearing his reply, Shi Jiu strangely felt a sense of relief, followed by a burst of annoyance.
"Okay, then you keep a close eye on that guy's whereabouts." Shi Jiu quickly left this place and entered the dark little room. She stood behind the door, her heart filled with complicated emotions.
Qin Lou, who was watching her enter the small dark room, sighed helplessly outside. What should he do?
"Host, why are you..." According to the fact that 001 has watched so many romance dramas, doesn't the host have a good impression of that big villain?
The 001 flower that entered the small dark room was covered with colorful light, which was particularly eye-catching in the darkness.
Shi Jiu reached out and touched its petals, "But...if I tell you, what will happen in the future?"
This was what had been tormenting her. She had noticed back at the amusement park that she seemed to have feelings for Qin Lou, but what could she do? Did Qin Lou like her too? Wasn't that just a subordinate's concern for their superior?
Even though he was so capable and didn't need to do all this, even if he really loved her, she had to go home after completing her mission...
Rather than end up in pain, it's better not to tell her. After all, she just has a good impression of him, right? Let's leave some hope in other people's lives.
001 was also stunned when she heard her words. According to the host's logic, after completing the mission, she would leave this world and cut off from it. It seemed that... it was right not to provoke others, but the other party was a big devil!
It's a pity that it can't say such things, but it would be great if it could see the big devil get humiliated. It didn't know how much effort it had spent to turn the tide before, and it was all because...
Shi Jiu encouraged himself in his heart, "I just like her a little bit, it's okay...", his voice gradually lowered with a hint of sobbing.
No matter how much she wanted to get rid of the feeling in her heart, this was the first time she fell in love with someone, and emotions could not be suppressed immediately.
In the darkness, only 001 could barely see her slightly red eyes and tightly pursed lips, and the tears at the corners of her eyes were faintly visible in the soft light.
After a long while, it finally heard Shi Jiu's hoarse voice say to it, "001, I'm going to release that guy, get ready."
"good……"
It was still the same room as before. Shi Jiu was sitting opposite Yan Qing. Yan Qing, who had just been released, was confused. He turned around in disbelief and looked around twice before realizing that he seemed to have been released from his confinement. He was overjoyed. The long period of torture had made him lose his edge, and he looked at Shi Jiu with a pleading look on his face.
"Please let me go, I...I can do anything, I don't want to stay in there anymore..." Yan Qing cried with tears and snot.
"Tell me about what you did before." Shi Jiu didn't really want to waste time talking to him, and he was in a bad mood at the moment, so he stared at Yan Qing with a dark face.
"I... I also listened to my father. He said before that he would tie up those people, transport them to a place, and send people in regularly, but I never saw anyone come out." Yan Qing trembled as he told the story of what had happened before.
"I was really forced by my dad. He never paid attention to me before. After the apocalypse, I had nothing to do for a while. Then my superpowers came out, and he suddenly found me and said that if I helped him, he might pass the base to me in the future. This is what I have always dreamed of, so I definitely agreed."
"At first, I targeted outsiders, but later on, people from the base would also start to attack. Later, I became obsessed with that matter, so I decorated the villa area outside and sent people over. I didn't expect that you would..."
They all knew the rest of the story. Shi Jiu frowned and looked at Yan Qing, "So it was your father who asked you to capture people before? The original purpose was to send them to a certain place? Where is that place?"
That place is probably Chang Gu’s lair.
"This... I am only responsible for collecting people, and transportation is not my responsibility." This matter was not something Yan Qing could know.
"001. Is what he said true?" Shi Jiu would never believe such a person so easily, so he directly asked 001 to take a lie detector test.
"Everything I said is true!" Yan Qing said hurriedly when he saw that Shi Jiu didn't believe him at all. He wanted to come forward and kneel down to beg, but he was restricted by the surroundings and had no way to escape from this cage.
"Host, what he said is true." 001 has tested it and confirmed it is correct.
"Then can you let me go?!" Yan Qing's eyes were full of anticipation when he heard the identification result of 001.
"But I don't think I promised you to let you go..." Shi Jiu looked at the scumbag in front of him coldly. Has he forgotten everything he did before?
With a wave of his hand, a screen of light appeared in front of him. It was filled with the requests of the victims who wanted him to be punished, and there was a disc next to it.
"The disc shows your ending. You spin it yourself. If it goes to the ocean, you go back to pick up trash. If it goes to punishment, the system will randomly select a punishment for you. How about that?" Shi Jiuke never intended to let him go, let alone that this guy was the mastermind.
Yan Qing's face turned pale when he saw what was on it. He no longer had the strength to turn the disc and was trembling in his seat.
After Shi Jiu got the information he wanted, he didn't want to stay here any longer, so he directly controlled Yan Qing's hand and asked him to touch the disc himself.
"No...don't..." Yan Qing watched the disc as it last crossed the ocean and stopped at the punishment. Then a dazzling array of punishments flashed before his eyes. When the last punishment item came out, he had already fainted.
This spinning in circles was a random event, and Shi Jiu didn't know what would happen in the end. But when the punishment came out, he couldn't help but sneer out loud. It was really karma.
Physical castration.
"001, let's go and let him enjoy the fruits of his labor."
Shi Jiu no longer paid attention to this matter. He immediately went to find Yan Yue and told him what Yan Qing had said.
"This is roughly the situation. Does your father have any impression?" According to what Yan Qing said, Yan Ping was most likely working for Chang Gu.
After listening to this, Yan Yue was silent. He had thought that Yan Ping had just given up on him, but he didn't expect that he would do such a thing in private. No wonder he was so anxious to get rid of Yan Qing on the spot.
"I don't know. He's no longer my father. The last time I went there to deliver some supplies, I discovered that there was no one left at the Anhe base..."
He couldn't find anyone either. The entire Anhe base was empty. He also thought that the other party just couldn't bear such a blow and moved to another city to live. But now it sounded more like he had gone somewhere else.
"Anhe Base?" Shi Jiu remembered that this was the only area in the entire City B that had not been incorporated into Sifang City, so he hurriedly took the tablet to look at the map.
"001! Have you located the specific location?"
"Almost there, just a little bit more!" The data in the background of 001 is also working hard to decipher the opponent's lair.
"It's OK! It's right here at the Anhe base!"
"Boss! The tracking point is at the former Anhe base, and it hasn't moved much until now!"
Just when 001 was successfully decrypted, Qin Lou's tracking point was also determined, which was at Anhe Base!
Shi Jiu looked at the address on the map. He didn't expect that there was a dark place under the lamp. This place was lurking nearby and was not discovered by them until now.
"Do we want to go now?" Qin Lou looked over. They had been to that place last time. They didn't expect that the seemingly ordinary base hid such a shocking secret.
Shi Jiu glanced at the distance and asked, "What can we do if we go over there? Can we defeat those people?"
001 said dutifully, "Host, I don't think it will work. After all, with that traitor here, Chang Gu will definitely find other ways to deal with us."
However, only Shi Jiu could hear what 001 said. After the others came over to understand the whole process, they all offered suggestions.
"How about we gather everyone in Sifang City and attack them?"
"This is too troublesome. Without training, it's easy to hurt others by mistake."
"Then we..."
Many employees knew about this and were indignant and wanted to offer suggestions. Shi Jiu looked at the situation with a headache, and she had not yet figured out what to do.
"Or... I'll go and check out the situation." Qin Lou quietly walked to her side and said silently.
"Don't! It's too dangerous!" After hearing his words, Shi Jiu subconsciously stopped Qin Lou. The person on the other side was the mastermind behind the scenes, and it would be troublesome if he was killed by the other party.
"Boss, now is not the time to hesitate. If we wait until they are ready, we will have no chance of winning." Qin Lou looked at her expressionlessly, as if this had to be done for the sake of the entire Sifang City.
"But……"
"Host, you don't have to argue about how to get through. The other side is coming directly."
001's words instantly cleared her mind. She pulled Qin Lou, who wanted to leave, and looked at him firmly and said, "Qin Lou, you really don't have to go. They're already here."
